Longitudinal Experiences

Echo OB/GYN Clinic

As part of obstetrics and gynecology rotations, residents spend 1-2 half days per week providing obstetrics and gynecology care at Echo Community Healthcare, a Federally-Qualified Health Center in Evansville. This busy clinic provides multi-disciplinary care for a diverse and underserved population.

Home Visits

Residents complete a minimum of two home visits on patients from their continuity panel. These visits are scheduled with a faculty member and focus on the functional status and home environment of the patient.

Medication Assisted Treatment

In 2019, DFMR began to treat patients with opioid use disorder using medication-assisted treatment (suboxone) in individual and group-based visits. MAT is integrated into resident clinic practice.

Nursing Home

Residents are assigned 2 continuity patients to follow on a monthly basis within local extended care facilities beginning their second year.

Sports Physicals

In addition to performing sports physicals on our continuity patients within the FMC, residents also assist with mass sports physical screenings with local high schools.
